Acefast Acefit Air Review: Sleek Style, Solid Substance

wired.com Ryan Waniata 2025-10-03 01:03:00

In the swelling tide of open earbuds, it can be easy to overlook an underdog. When Acefast’s Acefit Air first came to my attention, they seemed like any other pair of budget ear hooks, the baseline design for buds that let you listen to tunes while keeping your ears open to the world. I was delightfully surprised once I got them out of the box, starting with their spyware-thin charging case harboring stylishly slim buds with a touch of metallic flair. The Acefit Air’s daily performance is simil

Kia EV4 Review: Price, Specs, Availability

wired.com John Voelcker 2025-10-03 02:00:00

The 2026 Kia EV4 could be an important vehicle in the ongoing global EV transition. To be sold in 140 markets globally, the EV4 is a carefully calibrated shot at bringing long-range electric power into the high-volume mainstream segment of compact sedans and hatchbacks at an affordable price. US and Asian markets will get an EV4 sedan (the model I spent the day with for this review), now built in Korea. Europeans’ preference for five-doors means only an EV4 hatchback will be available in that r

It functions much like the more expensive models, with an internal 65-liter-capacity orb that rotates and catches clumps with a plastic grate, depositing them into a bag-lined box below.

What just happened? While many new Nintendo Switch 2 owners are handling their consoles with extreme care, fearful that a single accident could spell disaster for the prized device, JerryRigEverything's Zack Nelson took a very different approach. In a recent video, Nelson subjected the handheld to a series of punishing durability tests, pushing the limits of Nintendo's latest hardware to see just how much abuse it could withstand.

Repair technician finds three of four RTX 4090s were fakes packing RTX 3000-series GPUs

techspot.com Rob Thubron 2025-10-03 06:46:00

Why it matters: The surprisingly common practice of replacing a high-end graphics card's GPU with a different one from a cheaper card, borking it in the process, isn't going away. A Chinese repair technician uploaded a video to YouTube showing that of the four faulty RTX 4090 cards he recently received, three of them packed RTX 3090 or RTX 3080 dies. The YouTuber explains in the video that the customer in this case paid 10,000 yuan ($1,392) for each graphics card, which were purchased from an o

Trying out Nvidia’s RTX 50 Series GPU on a Falcon Northwest gaming PC | review

Kelt Reeves has been creating custom gaming PCs since 1992. Before he got out of college, Reeves started Falcon Northwest in Medford, Oregon, and it’s cranking out gaming PCs with the polish of a small company. I have interviewed Reeves over the years and used a number of his machines.

How Mixtape reminds us that your mixtapes were your life | Johnny Galvatron interview

It took Johnny Galvatron and his small team of neophytes six years to make The Artful Escape, a musical narrative game that debuted in 2021. With Mixtape, the team has been working on it for about two years. Annapurna Interactive published the game from Galvatron, a former star from the Australian band The Galvatrons, even though it focused on a somewhat cursed genre of music games. It did well enough for Annapurna, despite its recent troubles, to publish Galvatron’s second game. With Mixtape,
